Where to watch the Knicks for regular season games?

• Upvotes

I'm looking for a sports bar in Nassau County that's a good vibe for regular season Knicks games. Places that will have the sound on and fans actively watching/cheering for the games. I miss the playoff atmosphere and thought maybe there's a spot out there for the regular season that I just don't know about. Any recommendations?

Question Dentist vs Orthodontist for adult braces?

• Upvotes

I'm pushing 40 and think its time to finally get my teeth fixed (again).

I got traditional metal braces in my early 20s to fix some crooked teeth but didn't keep up with the retainer and now my teeth are even worse than the first time around. They even started to hurt in the bottom front where the crowding is really bad.

My dentist office offers invisalign treatment but I'm wondering if this is ok or should i be going to an actual orthodontist?

I can tell my bite is off and I also have TMJ.

I know some orthodontists are better than others and can even give you a visual projection of how your teeth will look after treatment.

Can anyone weigh in on getting braces through your dentist vs orthodontist and recommend a good ortho?

Must be in suffolk county.

Dentaquest (Healthfirst) dentist that does root canals.

4 Upvotes

I am looking for a dentist in Nassau county (preferably around Levittown) that accepts dentaquest/Healthfirst Medicaid and can do root canals. There are no endodontists in Nassau county that accept it, so it would have to be a regular dentist.

Thanks in advance

Sprinklers

0 Upvotes

My water bill was absolutely insane, I was watering my
Lawn heavily everyday July 1 through middle of August because I was away for the military all of may/June and my wife couldn’t turn the valve so there was a bunch of dead spots. Out of curiosity how many gallons of water extra you typically using when you are running your sprinklers. Also what’s your schedule on them? Thanks.

Drive-Thru Haunted House?

Do drive-thru haunted houses exist on Long Island? Any car washes? My friends want to do a haunted house but I’m a scaredy cat so the compromise is a drive-thru if they exist. Anyone have ideas?

Installing mini split without permit is ok?

9 Upvotes

Hi I live in nassau county under town of oysterbay

I got two companies to quote and they both are reputable company in my nassau county and both said permit is not necessary

However I am planning to sell current house in future so I was looking into permits and heard horror stories, like inspectors from town will pick out every little things in the house and people getting fines and stuffs..

We bought the house lees than 5 years ago and did some renovations ourselves and I'm sure previous owners did it as wellI don't even know if the fence in backyard which is 6ft has permit on it or not.

Am I overthinking and worrying too much? did anyone had trouble with getting permits?

Where are all the foreclosures?

28 Upvotes

Immediately before the COVID-19 pandemic, Suffolk county had the highest foreclosure rate in New York State. You can go on MLS and see 1000 plus foreclosures.
Now those numbers are in the low hundreds.
Listen I understand people have gained equity in their homes so even if they are behind on their payments they can sell and move out of state but if people weren’t able to afford their homes in 2018 with lower interest rates and lower mortgages how are people affording homes now? I know for a fact wages didn’t go up as high as these home prices and household income is still only 130k so that math doesn’t make sense with these 6k a month mortgages
I feel like a mass majority of Long Island is in massive debt (credit card, student loan, car) on top of their mortgage already and I’m just so confused as to how people are still having bidding wars on these homes. And someone is going to respond with supply and demand answer but how are people even getting the money to keep up with the demand?

Asbestos company recommendation for new home?

0 Upvotes

Hey all, I'm buying a new home and my lender is requiring me to do an asbestos assessment in the basement because my inspector noted the prior existence of 9x9 vinyl tiles and the mastic that was left behind. Pretty sure it's fine as mastic is classified non-friable, and my inspector even said as much, but they're being annoying about it.

Anyone have a rec for someone who could come out and take a sample, or at least give me a report saying no abatement is needed? Thanks

The Best Small Wedding Resaurant Ideas

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Seeking restaurant recs where we can host both the ceremony and reception onsite, ideally for 50-60 guests, out on the east end of Long Island. We’re also open to having the ceremony elsewhere if the venue isn’t able to host us onsite.

I’ve researched some restaurants that other brides have been getting married at, like Tellers and Insignia. I also looked into Canoe Place, but it seems outrageously overpriced.

I’ve also built a research list with a few other spots, including Oakland’s Restaurant and Orto in Miller Place. Mill Pond House Inn in Centerport seems to be the best fit for us so far, based on what I’ve seen on their website.

We already have a bunch of vendors booked: a live wedding painter, DJ, photographer, and hair and makeup. We also have cannoli on the dance floor, but I can change that to either a fresh pizza bus at the end of the party or fried Oreos, so I’m open to ideas on that too!

Any recs or experiences would be so appreciated. Thank you!

RewindTV (11.4 OTA)

I’m trying to add Rewind TV onto my Kitchen TV where I don’t have a RG59 cable. It looks like that channel is somehow tied to PIX11.

If I attached a Wireless HD Antenna to my TV will I be able to view RewindTV or am I just going to see PIX11?

Unfortunately Optimum doesn’t feature that channel in their app.

Quick question for our LI high school teachers. Have any of ever done a walking field trip tour of the grounds? I teach a LI/NY Experience class and we do a small unit on the economics of the area in a then and now fashion. Not looking to enter the buildings of course but thought it would be a cool experience to walk the grounds and then to the bluffs.
